Teaching Your Child to be Honest
-, 
 
Liar, liar pants on fire.
 
The thought of one’s trousers bursting into flames upon telling a fib would seem more than enough to promote honesty. But alas, this simple yet graphic poem appears not to have the effect you might expect.

So, how do you effectively teach children to be honest?

At Kiddie Academy, honesty is one of the key values in Kiddie Academy’s Character Education curriculum.

Richard Peterson, Kiddie Academy’s Vice President of Education, defines honesty as, “the act of being true in your communication and the way you represent yourself to others. Adults should model honesty by telling children the truth and keeping their word. For example, if you say you’ll do something, do it. Being honest and having integrity sets the foundation of a trusting environment.”

Learn more about how you can create an environment that’s conducive for teaching your child to be honest.

Treating Twins, Triplets and Other Multiples as Individuals
We love having siblings enrolled at Kiddie Academy. In most cases, they are spread among different classrooms based on their ages. However, in some instances, we serve families who are parents of “multiples”. In these situations where your children are the same age, and often look exactly alike, there are special considerations we like to keep in mind. [read more]
 
Make Sure Screen Time is Quality Time
How much screen time is too much screen time? Although our phones, tablets, computers and TVs can be valuable windows into enhanced communication, productivity and learning, studies suggest that screen time for preschool children should be limited to 1-2 hours of quality viewing per day. [read more]
